Carlos Cruz-Diez

These vibrant screenprints by Venezuelan kinetic art pioneer Carlos Cruz-Diez showcase his lifelong exploration of color as an autonomous phenomenon, independent of form and space. Executed in bold, rhythmic bands and geometric configurations, the works demonstrate his mastery of optical interaction, creating the illusion of movement and chromatic transformation as the viewer shifts perspective. Printed on both lightweight card and wove paper, the portfolio exemplifies Cruz-Diez's belief that color is not merely decorative but a dynamic, ever-changing experience in itself.

Medium
Four screenprints in colours, from the set of eight on light-weight card paper; and one screenprint in colours, on wove paper, all with full margins,
